If David weren't mentioned as a child living in Little Palace, I'd suspect he's Ilya Morozova. It's not like Baghra has to be able to recognize him, given her age and her age, when she saw him last, and what else would be the best place to continue his work?

If I had nickel for every time Nina Zenik fell for a Fjerdan man affiliated with Jarl Brum I’d have two nickels but it’s weird it has happened twice

I've been scoping out the Grishaverse wiki pages recently and I've found a few things that fascinate me, possibly a bit too much. Sankta Magda's story mentions two spirits called the cold woman who lives at the bottom of the river and the shadow man who lurks behind doors. Sankt Petyr's story tells of a demon who dwells in a lake. Several times throughout the series characters talk about khitka. Clearly the Grishaverse has concepts of demons, spirits, and ghosts outside Grisha. We've seen creatures like Morozova's stag, the serpent, the firebird, and dragons (if you count KoS) appear in the series before. I could be mistaken, but in order for Ilya Morozova to have created these amplifiers, wouldn't these creatures needed to have existed beforehand? Or did he just merzost them into existence along with their amplifier status? If sea serpents and dragons are real, could things like the khitka exist in some form as well?

So. The Stag, the Sea Whip and the Firebird existed before they became amplifiers. What Morozova did was to find them (the first two), kill them and bring them back to life through merzost. And that's how they became amplifiers.

Now about the khitkii, I'm not sure. I mean there is a very blurred line between the real and the fake when it comes to superstitions. Some times superstitions and fairytales come true (in the case of the Stag, the Sea Whip and mermaids) while other times they're just fiction, born out of fear of the unknown.

So my answer about the khitkii is that I wouldn't be surprised at all if they existed. At least in the Grishaverse tales tend to lean more to the truth than to lies (mostly).

#even in my culture I've heard some crazy stories that make me think “shit. they might had existed after all” #in the Grishaverse? Oh yes.... Fantastical creatured tend to be not that fantastical after all #anon asks #ilya morozova #grishaverse #shadow and bone #mythology #tales

hot take: Darklina's kid wouldn't be a Sun OR Shadow Summoner...

this theory goes against the regular Grisha power "inheritance" rules (if you're Grisha, one of your parents was the same type as you), but I don't care, bc neither Alina nor Aleksander were really "normal". & that shit w/Zoya & Juris still makes me salty (no spoilers though), OP ugh.

ANYWAY--

imagine the Darklina kid having the power of gravity, kinetic energy, or merzost itself (w/the harmful effects). let me explain.

gravity is unseen. stars are basically just balls of plasma held together by gravity & a lot of movements/phenomena we study concerning outer space is thanks to the gravitational pull of a star on other stuff. also, Aleks controls the unseen, in a way.

kinetic energy = movement in general. Gambit/Remy LeBeau from the X-Men (Marvel Comics) controls this, so he can make objects spontaneously combust OR slow things down. cue the ultimate form of Etherealki!!

merzost is, in short, forbidden magic that everyone finds unpredictable & costly. but Ilya Morozova had a pretty good handle on it. he was able to resurrect his daughter using it & his exposure to it altered his blood/DNA/whatever enough to give his descendants a new Grisha power (IDK why HE didn't become a Shadow Summoner). so a merzost Grisha might be an advanced Healer, able to completely resurrect & reconstitute people. maybe they could speak to spirits. tbh merzost is just witchy jurda parem.

I've seen lots of fics about the Reader being a "Star Summoner" or a "Moon Summoner"...if you use these ideas, please tag/credit me! I'd love to see your take on these--

New UA : Ilya Morozova lives, gets to meet David, and they have lots of very nice Fabrikator shenanigans adventures.

I know the framing is very off, and it's not well-centered, but I like the scenery too much to trim it. So there.

Not pictured : Genya disapproving and Baghra cursing Ilya in and out and threatening to eat him alive if he doesn't leave David alone (David doesn't agree).

Bonus : progress gif !

no other thoughts, just full baghra brainrot. she was terrified as a child, she hid as a child, she cleaved her sister in two as a child, she wanted for a child, she left near all her children, she will never be a child again, not for a thousand endless years and it will never heal. she was never allowed to be a child, her father committed atrocities, her father was a saint, she was one of his atrocities, she is his legacy, she becomes atrocious, it will never heal. she burns down villages for her child. she only has her child. her child cuts her finger off. her child commits atrocities. her child is her legacy. she was wrong. it is too late, it will never heal. she cannot stop her child, she cannot stop any of her children, she abandons her children, her children sequester her away, they are right to. it will never heal. she comes to her childhood home, hidden away, the price to enter is blood, the price is always blood, her sister was resurrected, her sister's legacy will die, she will kill her sister's child, speaks it into existence, it will never heal. she opens the grave and there is nothing inside but a broken toy, it will never heal. she stands in the fire, she burns the legacy, she says she loves her child, she says it isn't enough, it was never enough- she cuts off her child's hand, her child is her, her child's legacy is torn to the ground, a scar left cut into the dirt, just another funeral pyre- it will never heal.

it will never heal it will never heal it will never heal

Morozova love is just so cursed and so strong. Ilya resurrected his daughter back from the dead and got chained and thrown into a river because of it. Baghra loved her son so much she took no remorse in slaughtering innocents and burning villages to protect him. Aleksander loved Luda and she died simply because of that and he cares for the Grisha so much he’ll do anything for them, no matter what. Ulla loved Signy very much that she was willing to do forbidden magic to get her what she wanted and then was betrayed terribly because of it. Mal walked perhaps for days till he found the orphanage Alina was in and was always able to find her. He loved her so much he was ready for her to kill him to help her accomplish her goal

Have you ever noticed how the embroidery on the Durast Keftas kinda looks like thorns or antlers? Do you think this was Aleksanders way of recognising his grandfather as the "greatest Fabrikator to have ever lived"? Because I do.

It's a waste that David never got his own mythology. Kost is the russian word for bone and Baghra once mentioned that she refused to teach him, because he reminded her to much of Ilya. Ilya the Bonesmith, who is eventually a reverence to Koschtschei.

If Baghra hated Ilya's inventions so much, why did she have children instead of killing herself sooner?

Because she's a selfish creature and a hypocrite.

If she despises Alesander's pride so much, why did she instilled it in him to begin with?

AU where they couldn't figure out how to kill Aleksander, so they throw him in some immortal - imprisoning jail and he sneaks in with Merzost and in there meets Ilya.
